Chapter 124: Sports Festival
"I want to show my handsome side and take the opportunity to confess to Senior Sister Mizushima!"
Yusa Kento walked directly behind Yagami and said his thoughts with some excitement, but Yagami who was walking in front was a little embarrassed by this.
Many of the teachers at the school are watching the students' situation without smiling, and some of them can be seen as adults who feel like medical personnel. In addition, the school has built a hut where people can rest for a while, and the room is equipped with facilities such as air conditioning and water dispensers.
"The school is really well prepared, and even the cameras used to determine the results are installed."
The school seems to be preparing for the 100-meter race, which all grades will participate in, and a camera can be seen at the finish line.
"In other words, the university should avoid misjudgments or ambiguous results."
"What group are you running in the 100m?" Chiaki Momose asked Yagami next to her.
"Group Five."
Yagami replied while looking at a piece of paper with the order and time of the contest written on it.
“…… If only there were no strong enemies. Yusa Kento said something confusing, and then turned to Yagami Yagami who was in front of him and said, "For the sake of the class, I'll give you a little more gas." ”
"I'll try to keep the class from falling behind."
After Yagami said that he had no ambition, the second-year boys walked to the playground for the next 100m race.
All grades participate in the 100m race, which is carried out in the order of 2nd graders, 1st graders, and 3rd graders. The program doesn't end until the second grade boys start running, then the second grade girls, then the first grade boys, and finally the third grade girls.
After the break, students in each of the three grades will go separately to compete in the competition they want to participate in.
The second-year boys were divided into 12 groups, and soon it was the boy's turn to run the first group, and about 20 seconds later, the signal sounded when it was the turn of the second group.
In other words, by the time all the boys in the second grade finish running, it takes four minutes. It would take about 30 minutes to finish the first race with the students of all three grades taking turns.
The competition went smoothly, and the previous groups were consumed one after another, and it was the turn of the Yagami Yagami group.
Yagami Night is the fourth runway, and Chris, who is also in Class A, is on the fifth runway next door. The other members of the same group are Kusunoki from Class C, Sakai from Class B, and the remaining four boys who he doesn't know.
Chris, who was running next door to Yagami, was ahead of the crowd little by little, catching up with the person in front of him, and then overtaking him to the first place. On the other hand, the backs of the three people in front of him can be seen in Yagamiya's field of vision, ranking fourth.
Because there was no big difference in running ability between the eight people in the same group, they were almost walking in a crowded state, so Yagami Ye didn't want to change his order at the cost of injuries that might result from bumping into others, and finally finished the race in fourth place. In contrast, Chris finished first in Group 5 by a fraction of a second place.
"Whew, hard work."
Chris, who had reached the finish line one step earlier, calmed down the rhythm of his breathing and turned his head to say a word of comfort to Yagami Yagami.
"I'm sorry, but I'm still pulling my back."
"It's not like that, everybody is running fast, it's a great showdown!"
Even if my results were very unproductive, Chris did not criticize me, but greeted me with a smile...... Chris, you're so gentle!
Yagami and Chris quickly left the track and returned to the tent after completing their first 100m race. Since the other groups start every 20 seconds, if you continue to stay, it will become an obstacle for those who come behind.
After the 100m race for the second-year boys, most of the boys who returned to their seats stared intently at the next race for the girls in their grade.
Although many of the boys mainly wanted to see the results of the race, they also wanted to see the girls running, and some even made jokes about it, and then were glared at by the people around them.
At the same time as the starting signal sounded, the seven girls from the first group ran out.
……
The second event for boys is hurdles. It's the same as the 100m race, and it's basically a good reflection of your running ability.
Having said that, that's not all, you can't rush and step over accurately, otherwise you will taste the serious consequences of mistakes. In this sport, knocking down a hurdle and hitting a hurdle are added to the time penalty, with knocking down the hurdle to add 0.5 seconds and hitting the hurdle to add 0.3 seconds to the number of seconds they reach the finish line.
In this way, you can't win the race just by running fast, you have to jump over it accurately.
Having said that, you can't win by jumping slowly, so the focus is on how much you can catch when practicing, and there are a total of ten hurdles placed at 10m intervals. If you knock down all the hurdles, it should be a desperate position.
"So, let's get the fourth group ready."
Yagami was called by the referee, so he came to the same runway as before.
On the second runway next to it is Kento Yusa Sa.
"Looks like we're going to run into each other pretty quickly."
"Yu Zuo, please be merciful to your subordinates."
"Humph! I'm not going to release water. ”
After the start, Yagami was faster than the previous 100m race, and Yusa stood out as he said and ran at the front of the group. At the end of the hurdle run, Yagami finished second in the fourth group.
……
The event that follows the hurdle run is the "inverted pole", which is a simple and rough team race with some dangers.
No matter how many students there are in the same camp, you must think about strategy and compete with each other with your current combat power.
The rules of the game are that the group that wins two shots first wins, and the people of Yagamiya's camp decided to alternate the attack and defense of each group in the pre-discussion, probably because it is very risky for each group to decide the offense and defense by itself, so it is better to adopt this more understandable way, and it is easier to cooperate.
The format is that Yagami's group is responsible for attacking the opponent first, and the other group takes over the responsibility of defending the pole. If this form of attack and defense can be preempted, it will not change the original plan and change the group responsible for attack and defense.
